I found a bottle of this hanging out at MSRP at a small local shop. I've tried the entire wood finishing series including 46 cask strength. They're all quite good, so I was really excited to see this in the wild a couple of years after it was released.
I can keep this short and sweet since the notes on this are so clear. It is caramel apple with an oak spice finish. Boozy apple on the nose, a burst of apple with sweet caramel trailing on the palate, and burst of oak spice on the finish. Excellent.
This is really good, and may even be my favorite of the wood finishing series. I honestly can't say that for sure, though, because here is something I've noticed on this series. The first pour is usually out of this world, but I find that the notes start to dull on these really quickly in the ensuing weeks and months. But for tonight - wow. Really good!
